At some point I had to replace the "Easter" decoration with something new. So here it is. All themed around traditional English "Afternoon Tea" with lot´s of vintage china, roses and lace. I just love all of the romantic details. The colour palette is with soft pastels and all of the sweet little details leave me once again planning another fabulous tea party soon. The only thing missing are the cakes so I better start baking.
After so many nice reaction on the Crochet Flower Garland with over 2500 pic views on Flickr, I felt encouraged by you and by the upcoming warm spring weather (really now, I promise) to continue the "series". So here´s the latest, my "Sweet Spring Crochet Flower Wreath" I am very proud of. If you look closely enough you even see some cute little animals living there. I count the happy mushroom that my hubby's sister brought to life as an…
Long planned and well prepared was today my birthday party. I have seen this funny pop-up cake stall on the internet and was eager to build one of my own. Wood and colours I got from the DIY store in the Netherlands and I am proud to be able to show it today. Fully loaded with cakes and stuff. I finished the cakes yesterday and the guests had to decide between caramel brownies, cherry-raspberry-coconut slices or leopard print cake or…

But Friday was the first day, when I felt a little better and I immediately turned into crafty-Andrea. I can show you my new bunting, made out of different sized doilies…
My hubby is getting a supercute gift, which I secretly finished last week already! Well, the original idea I had in mind, seems to be unworkably. I wanted to scratch our both initials in some wooden bark. but: how do I get the tree inside our house? and: how should I wrap the tree up?! so, at the end I decided to embroider everything, and I am quite happy with the outcome! But of course I need a supercute valentine's…
Ever since I saw this in London as store decoration at Spitalfields market, I knew I wanted to make such a vintage lace curtain for our porch door. The only problem was to get enough lace and doily pieces together. But, Thanx to my lovely colleagues Nina and Christina it did not take very long. In order to make it look vintage, I dyed every cutting or collar individually with black tea. After drying I sewed everything together. You guessed…
